[00:00] so im downloading 15 server for i386 === DataComSolutions is now known as netvergent [00:00] and hopefull there will be no issues with the immage [00:01] noc: OK, what version of " libclutter-gst-2.0-0 " is installed ? [00:02] 2.0.0 [00:03] Bashing-om everything is update...I don't see why its not working === avis is now known as {james} === {james} is now known as {james`fgt [00:05] MooMilk: Not sure, this is an area I would just fumble, I have seen you addressed by excellent helpers. Have you followed the help and responded? [00:06] not the easiest place to communicate for sure [00:07] veer4, only one other person addressed me. Said to run memtest. Running it now [00:07] MooMilk: Ah, so it is a patience issue, seems attached to a running guesses. ;) [00:08] time for more caffiene later [00:10] when you export variables in bash in ubuntu, they only last until the terminal session closes, no? What is the best config file in ubuntu to store common bash env variable exports to make them "persistent"? [00:10] .profile? .bashrc? or some such? [00:13] promet: Are you going to use the variables across users? [00:13] promet: or is it just for one individual? [00:16] promet: You will probably want to store them in .bashrc anyway [00:20] so WHAT1 is copying text to WHAT2 when you highlight text in linux (consoles, gedit etc)? [00:21] aleec1: ? x buffer? [00:21] aleec1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_selection ? [00:22] testimg [00:22] you've passed [00:25] hmm weechat is kind of nice it uses a different color for each unique irc account [00:25] Ubuntu page says the Ubuntu OpenStack installation requires at least seven machines. There is a way to test it with less machines, not for production, but for testing [00:26] that's an impressive # of machines [00:26] I've got openstack up an running on two [00:26] and I know a gentelman who is using a singular physical server [00:27] my apologies on the sp [00:27] but of course we can all read http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/ubuntu-openstack [00:28] yigal: i want now to study canonical openstack solution for now [00:28] Ill run a lot of VMs here and all of them with nested vmx [00:28] pqatsi: cool [00:29] yigal: yes, but is it the applications themselves that buffers the text or is it implicit? [00:29] pqatsi: I find those near enterprise conditions of seven servers rather interesting [00:30] aleec1: dude, I'm afraid I'm not certain of your meaning, can you give an example [00:30] anyone can try help me? http://pastie.org/10255628 a2ensite not found the configuration file, not kno why, the configuration file exists thanks [00:30] sudo a2ensite /etc/apache2/sites-available/cmanzana.noip.me [00:30] ERROR: Site /etc/apache2/sites-available/cmanzana.noip.me does not exist! [00:31] yigal: I'm marking some text in this IRC client. It is now buffered. Who buffered it? The IRC-client or something else? [00:31] yigal: yup. I want to start study it because i liked a lot canonical/juniper venture in MAAS structure [00:31] pqatsi: no doubt, openstack is slowly beginning to shape into something useful [00:31] yigal: :) [00:31] so if I implement a text editor now, and marks text in it, it will not be buffered? [00:32] pqatsi: :) [00:32] hi, can anyone here help with a missing ami of trusty ? the ami is listed here: http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/trusty/current/ but it is gone from AWS [00:32] the ami id is: ami-a3c639c8 [00:33] aleec1: there are so many configurations, especially if you want to ensure that things are saved if things go awry, so many that's hard to provide an easy suggestion [00:34] doctorly, thanks! [00:36] promet: no problem, you usually want to put environment variables in the bashrc [00:36] aleec1: if you selected the text, that's the X window system that has stored your text [00:36] doctorly, roger that [00:37] chromium updated some time ago and now webgl doesn't work. even when i disable the gpu blacklist. was working before :'( === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [00:39] jak2000: cat cmanzana.noip.me doesn't have the prefix conf [00:39] jak2000: excuse me suffix [00:39] jak2000: I think that script needs the .conf [00:40] jak2000: see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20591889/site-does-not-exist-error-for-a2ensite [00:41] yigal: it seems that the target of the paste (say xterm) and the source of the paste (say gedit) are communicating with each other directly. So they both have to support select-pasting. [00:41] allizom: yes, they are using the same 'selection' the X selection [00:42] yigal: sure you meant to quote me? :) [00:43] ok looks like it was fixed and it is broken again, re: the missing ami [00:44] allizom: no, of course my apologies, too many beers [00:44] aleec1: yes, they are using the same 'selection' the X selection === anderj101 is now known as Guest88971 [00:46] lol. XChat logged into here automatically. [00:47] yigal thanks [00:48] jak2000: cool man === utlemming` is now known as utlemming [00:49] hey [00:49] what was the package for checking ntfs? [00:51] see if you recognize it from the description by typing apt-cache search ntfs in a termina; [00:52] terminal [00:53] hellyeah: what type of check do you have in mind? [00:54] i guess it is ntfsfix [00:54] like chkdsk i suppose [00:54] yigal thanks === tomivs is now known as Guest84400 [00:58] hellyeah: There is no chkdsk equivalent for Ubuntu. For checking, and especially for repairing, ntfs volumes you simply need to use chkdsk from Windows. [00:59] finally ubunto 15 is installing effortlessly on my dell :) [00:59] ,there is a package ntfsfix [00:59] it seems do some checking === deckard_ is now known as xyzzy__ [01:00] jak2000: if you run into any other issues just let me know [01:01] hellyeah: Yes, but it is not a replacement for chkdsk (and in fact will schedule a chkdsk on the volume the next time Windows is booted). See "man ntfsfix" for details. === jova33 is now known as moomilk [01:11] has anyone heard of privatoria???? [01:12] on ubuntu how would I stop all processes containing some string for a given user... [01:12] ctrl+c [01:13] ? [01:13] BabySuperman: pkill "some string" [01:13] BabySuperman, but, for a given user? [01:13] woops [01:13] Jordan_U: but for a given user? :) like, pkill "python" -u my_user [01:13] BabySuperman: pkill -u userer "some string" [01:13] Jordan_U: tyvm [01:13] BabySuperman: You're welcome. === di_giorgio is now known as di_giorgi === di_giorgi is now known as di_giorgio [01:14] how to i test a raid array in ubuntu? [01:14] has anyone heard of privatoria???? [01:14] Hey. Is there a way to install an OS inside Ubuntu? I can't use my BIOS so I can't select the boot from USB option [01:15] theres virtual box [01:15] lost: virtual machine [01:15] lost, But I want to install it in a hard drive [01:16] Osmodivs: why can't you use your BIOS? [01:17] How do I improve the speed of my connection to ubuntu.com over command line/ [01:17] It seems like it takes forever. [01:17] I already disabled IPV6. [01:17] u can make a bootable usb for sure tho i have many [01:18] How do I kill a process based on the entire command (i.e. "python someapp.py with_some_args and_another_arg")? the pkill manual says -f should work on the whole command line but it's not appearing to [01:18] nvm used it wrong :) [01:19] allizom, I think it is corrupted, it wont let me save any settings [01:19] allizom, I've already flashed the BIOS [01:19] allizom, tried with different BIOS and nothing [01:20] Everytime I reboot I need to clear the CMOS [01:20] wow, that seems to be a risky thing to do [01:20] Well, they sell those BIOS chips on eBay [01:20] they are just plug-and play.. they say... [01:20] no soldering needed [01:21] Osmodivs, for dual booting you can also select which os via the grub boot menu [01:21] squinty, The thing I want to do is install an OS I have in a USB to another HDD [01:22] squinty, Is there a way to do that in GRUB? [01:22] Osmodivs: so you basically can't boot your computer from anything other than the hard drive? [01:22] allizom, Correct. [01:22] How do I improve the speed of my connection to ubuntu.com over command line/ [01:22] I already disabled IPV6. [01:23] I have a machine that can't boot (just goes to initramfs) because "/dev/mapper/system-root" cannot mount to /root [01:23] subsequent mounts (ex cannot mount /root/sys) fail. Is it because it is trying to mount everything to /root when it should be trying to mount everything to "/"? If so, how can I fix this? [01:23] allizom, Thats why I wanted to install an OS from Ubuntu [01:23] Remoboth: disabling IPv6 is usually overkill to anything. And what do you mean by 'improving speed' [01:23] Osmodivs: are you trying to replace your Ubuntu installation or to get it on a spare external drive? [01:23] allizom, Nah, just another OS, [01:23] allizom, In another HDD [01:24] Osmodivs, if you have cd/dvd and your computer will automatically boot from it before attempting to boot from the hard drive, you might also want to try plop for booting your usb [01:24] Osmodivs: there's dd (and others) for that [01:25] if you want a live system [01:25] teward - IT takes forever for me to connect to security.ubuntu.com [01:25] or archive.ubuntu.com [01:25] Remoboth: and it tries v6 first? [01:25] Remoboth: might I make a different suggestion, and that you static-code the address to security.ubuntu.com and archive.ubuntu.com in your /etc/hosts? [01:26] Ah. [01:26] squinty, I think the default boot is from a floppy disk. allizom, I already have the LiveCD in a USB stick, but I can't get my machine to boot from USB or CD-ROM [01:26] Remoboth: therefore that'll say "Use the v4" [01:27] Remoboth: that's a workaround, but will *definitely* speed up your connecting to favor v4 over v6 [01:27] Osmodivs: can you boot from CD/DVD? [01:27] Osmodivs, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot [01:27] allizom, nope. [01:27] Remoboth: case in point my computers have "IPv6 IGNORE" on the network settings and it still tries the v6 resolution and connections [01:28] my setup is 1 160 Drive for the system. and 2 250GB raid 1 arry for data. I have the sysetm running but cannot mount the SDB1/SDC should raid arrais show up as only SDB? not SDC as well? [01:28] teward - Aw, shit. Yeah. THat may be the issue. [01:29] Remoboth: also, please don't swear here. But that's one workaround suggestion I would say you should try - it's probably taking an eon because it's trying v6 where v6 doesn't work, which matches all the cases in the work network where we saw a similar issue - and i just drop the entire IPv4 list for the repos there into /etc/hosts. [01:29] squinty, That looks like it might work, I'll check it out, yhx. === gms is now known as Guest25184 [01:29] Remoboth: while it's definitely a crazy workaround, and is a little more unweildy long term, it's a workaround for short term [01:30] Osmodivs: you can try that way, but I'll ask anyway: do you really have a Floppy drive? [01:31] allizom, No, that'sjust an option on the BIOS [01:32] ah ok, I just asked because you can use plop with that too [01:32] Osmodivs, http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanagers.html if you have old floppy kicking around then it looks like plop will boot from those too [01:32] Call (920) 391-8572 for helpful Ubuntu support! [01:33] * Guest66961 calls [01:33] thanks. Logging out. [01:33] rutroh === Guest66961 is now known as BadDream [01:33] much more gooder [01:34] teward - Much obliged. Trying now. === jones_ is now known as NicholasCage [01:36] Hey I wanted some help with my ubuntu installation running clang [01:37] So I need to use clang 3.5 or 3.6 [01:37] But istalling the clang package from the repositories installs 3.4 [01:37] Is there a way I can change that? [01:39] llinguini: install clang-3.5 or clang-3.6? [01:40] llinguini: sudo apt-get install clang-3.6 [01:41] actually I tried that, but for some reason clang++ says that there is no such command [01:46] sorry I got disconnected [01:46] How do I enable this instead of simply starting it? [01:46] service iptables-persistent start [01:47] FreezingDroid: it should already autostart... at boot. [01:47] llinguini: did the install process go well? do you have both clang-3.4 and clang-3.5 installed? [01:47] Really? [01:47] teward: Why would that enable it to autostart? [01:47] FreezingDroid: if you did `apt-get install iptables-persistent` then it should work automatically [01:47] even in 15.04 [01:47] I'm using 14.04 [01:48] FreezingDroid: definitely in 14.04 does it work [01:48] FreezingDroid: what makes you think it isn't? [01:48] well I come from the systemd land. [01:48] When services don't wildly spin up on their own [01:48] s/When/Where/ [01:49] FreezingDroid: iptables-persistent merely makes it possible to persist your rules across boot - effectively, when the system comes up it does a `iptables-restore < /etc/iptables/rules.v4` and `ip6tables-restore < /etc/iptables/rules.v6` [01:50] FreezingDroid: it does have a 'start' and 'stop' script, but if you dissect the init.d file on 14.04, the core commands it runs if the files and modules exist are the two i just stated [01:50] FreezingDroid: it's 'save rules' function (the 'save' argument to service) saves the current ruleset to those files [01:51] FreezingDroid: it also already upon installation installs an init.d script... defining the start and stop states [01:52] FreezingDroid: so it automatically runs, either through upstart or sysvinit, not systemd, on 14.04 (I don't know which system manages it on 14.04, sadly, and I should probably get up off my butt and learn) [01:52] Alright. [01:52] list [01:52] q [01:52] teward: Thanks for the info; to be honest learning systemd was enough, not gonna pay attention to yet another system. [01:52] FreezingDroid: with iptables-persistent there's no real *need* to relearn the system [01:53] FreezingDroid: just because it's in init.d doesn't mean it has a corresponding daemon/software though [01:53] teward: not so [01:53] FreezingDroid: these aren't the droids you're freezing for [01:53] Hello. Whats a better supported graphics card? nvidia geforce 210 or ati 5450? [01:54] growbag: evidence? [01:54] growbag: i may be wrong there, but iptables-persistent's init.d in 14.04 doesn't execute its own process daemon [01:55] Init.d is old teward [01:55] growbag: and i would know that, since i'm looking at its init.d, AND my processes, on a 14.04 system that uses iptables-persistent. [01:55] growbag: and not everything is converted to upstart/systemd installation locations [01:56] Ever think that this might actually be way too fscking complicated to start a freaking service? [01:56] growbag: in 14.04, the only 'script' that handles iptables-persistent via `service` is /etc/init.d/iptables-persistent [01:56] Just saying. [01:56] https://plug.dj/tsimonq2-boss-music-collab [01:56] growbag: and the /etc/rc#.d/ folders which have iptables-persistent references point back to the /etc/init.d/ script for it [01:57] growbag: agreed that /etc/init.d/ may be 'old', but that doesn't mean that for the case of the iptables-persistent package it's 'dead and deprecated' [01:59] Is there a difference between ubuntu core and the ubuntu-minimal package set? [02:01] yeah, looks like there is. [02:01] python, rsyslog, and some others. [02:01] bwilson: The mini offers a bunch of options, the base I believe is basically the same. Why? [02:02] looking to roll out a minimalized ubuntu for use with docker images only. was just curious what the differences were between a Core install and a regular install using the ubuntu-minimal package set was, if any. [02:03] gotta have a dream ;) [02:03] teward: so after your big claims, it doesn't actually enable it [02:04] oh wait [02:04] maybe it does [02:04] nope [02:04] It's not started [02:04] growbag: do not contact me or anyone without asking on the channel. [02:04] ^ [02:05] I don't just click [02:06] don’t bother. it’s just some basic vulgarities. [02:07] Ops! bwilson vulgarity [02:07] Okay, so uptrack doesn't even give me a message [02:08] [fail] [02:08] How useful.

[02:09] What's wrong with running fsck on your disks? [02:11] FreezingDroid: you'll never know.

[02:38] Guest49748: Might try the ##networking channel for another perspective.

When I get to that point, I can ctrl-alt-del to the shutdown menu, but it won't shut down, and freezes completely. If I keep using the computer after the desktop is frozen, then everything will freeze 5 minutes after. The cursor will work, and the screen will still turn off when I close it. The only way to shut down is power button. [02:59] So my laptop will only be working 15 mins [02:59] kubuntu 15.0newest one [02:59] hello room [03:00] if i have a raid 1 system should the second hard drive in Fdisk say no valid partitions?

[03:02] No [03:02] Intel graphics thing [03:03] Remoboth: to edit it run gksudo gedit "path to doc" [03:03] moomilk: Can you remain stable enough to disable desktop effects in system settings? [03:04] Let me check [03:04] Let me reboot again [03:04] Rebooting [03:06] Also, has this been happening since your initial install? Or is it something that has started happening only recently? [03:07] Just recently [03:07] Are there any programs you've installed recently? [03:07] Which effects? Ask of them? [03:07] TeamSpeak [03:07] Disable all of them I guess. I don't use KDE [03:07] All of them? [03:07] haha [03:07] moomilk: have you checked if it may be as simple as your swapping? === vagrant_ is now known as lime [03:08] Swap might be disabled, true [03:08] git status [03:08] How do you check the swapping? [03:08] no SSD swapping will slow things down to a crawl [03:08] 测试 === lime is now known as Yas [03:09] Froze again. Didn't even have enough time to apply settings [03:09] Screw it, just going to reinstall kubuntu . Will that wipe everything? [03:10] moomilk: just info, to check, I have not followed every post. https://askubuntu.com/questions/157793/why-is-swap-being-used-even-though-i-have-plenty-of-free-ram [03:11] moomilk: Ubuntu has a install and keep stuff, I suspect kubuntu does as well, you might ask them in their channel. [03:12] Thanks, trying there now [03:15] No answer there [03:17] have you tried ubuntu moomilk? [03:18] I've seen others have a similar issue and ubuntu with the kde de seems to fix the issue. Can always install kde flavoured software on top of it if that's what you're looking for [03:18] True. It was working fine for like two weeks. [03:19] Don't know what happened [03:20] have you tried uninstalling teamspeak? don't think it's the issue but if installing that coincides with the freezing issue, maybe it's the culprit for some reason [03:22] It freezes before I'm able to even type enough commands [03:23] I tried changing the swappiness from 60 to 10, and it was already frozen before I could hit enter [03:24] Try reinstalling from scratch then. If you can, boot ubuntu on a usb and backup any data you need [03:24] Oh well. All I really had installed was TrueCrypt, hexchat, a torrent app, and openvpn [03:25] Easy enough to reinstall [03:26] Not when I don't know what I'm doing and have to Google everything [03:26] Again, if it happens again and you can't find a solid cause, try installing Ubuntu or Xubuntu and see if it happens there as well. Can always replace the shell with KDE [03:27] Knowing what you're doing comes with time and googling becomes easier. [03:27] I'm having an issue where my page freezes temporarily as if too much is going on for the computer too handle at that moment and when I open system monitor to check on things everything reads as being normal except for pulseaudio which is reading very high [03:28] Well, fresh install now. I'll be back if I have more issues [03:28] good luck moomilk [03:29] Anybody have any thoughts about that, what I should do?

[06:20] @grunhart novice here, so kindly provide guidance [06:20] crazyhorse [06:20] crazyhorse18: ahh i see! [06:20] mimbo: right, sorry. What's the USB device? [06:21] Good day all [06:21] i've also read many people syaing it's a 64bit chrome problem that the 32bit version doesn't suffer from [06:21] @grunhart : those portable kinds [06:21] I am using Ubuntu 14.04.2, what is this command "/lib/systemd/systemd-udevd --daemon" will do? [06:21] @grunhart : even the keyboard and mouse sometimes cannot be detected too.. [06:21] crazyhorse18: are you running a vm or on actual baremetal? [06:21] baremetal [06:22] mimbo: Errrr...Portable kinds? [06:22] right well you could load up proprietry drivers if you have a ATI card its usualy better than the opensource [06:22] unity-services, is that the package that handles audio and launches players? [06:23] @grunhart : erm, those 4GB kinds which you can get from IT stores [06:23] molgrum: what is your actual problem sorry i dont understand your question [06:23] @grunhart : in fact the system cannot detect and open files from any form of USB storage devices [06:24] schlerp: the problem is i launched spotify and it errored out because of libgcrypt20. and the loading circle went on foreverr [06:24] schlerp: the panel should stop the circle if the program cannot be launched [06:24] mimbo: can you do a ls /dev | grep sd and tell us how it goes? [06:25] hello all [06:25] I have a ubuntu box that's not booting correctly. or its not loading X. how do I fix this ? [06:25] molgrum: try this?? https://community.spotify.com/t5/Help-Desktop-Linux-Mac-Windows/Ubuntu-15-04-ships-with-libgcrypt20-but-spotify-app-version-is/td-p/1121359 [06:25] I can reboot via bootable usb [06:25] i have the following come out : [06:25] Haris: type startx once you've logged in to the gui and tell use what happens [06:25] *us [06:26] schlerp: that's a hack :) [06:26] but still, i want to file this as a bug [06:26] @schlerp : sda, sda1,sda2,sda5,sdb,sdb1,sdb2,sdb5,sdc,sdd,sdd1 [06:26] @schlerp : the sd are in red [06:26] if an audio player cannot launch, don't show the loading circle anymore [06:26] ok [06:27] looks like your usb is sdd1 [06:27] schlerp no tools -- it has a qr code but i installed a qr code reader and won't work -- prolly a bad app will look for another [06:27] molgrum: sorry i still have no idea what citrcle your talking baout [06:27] ohhh the mouse pointer? [06:27] schlerp: do you have any audio/video player? click the volume control icon in unity [06:27] miubuntu: lemme test something quickly [06:28] and then launch, you will see what i'm talking about [06:28] molgrum: nah im at work on win7 :( [06:28] okay :( [06:28] i'll look up a screenie [06:28] sorry molgrum, you could try on ask ubuntu? [06:29] mikubuntu can you "sudo hdparm -I /dev/sda" and post the output? [06:30] schlerp: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KLxFV-QKhw8/T6znCQRmULI/AAAAAAAAI54/RM3OqZdnoSE/s1600/sound-menu-all.png [06:30] click the play button and it will do a circle around the button, indicating that it's launching [06:31] then it stops when the program is launched [06:31] ahhhh i see! does it happen for all apps or jsut spotify? [06:31] schlerp: i only know of spotify, sorry [06:31] ahh rhythm box isnt on your machine by default is it... [06:31] i have rhythbox [06:31] +m [06:32] w 36 [06:32] molgrum can you test if that has any beef with the panel shortcuts? [06:32] @schlerp: so what does it means that my USB is sdd1 [06:32] schlerp: don't know if i want to rename the binary and mess with the system :/ [06:32] i can launch it fine tho [06:33] molgrum: nah i dont mean anything that hard core hahah i purely mean oipen rythm box and then try control it with the volume control on the panel [06:33] molgrum: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Help-Desktop-Linux-Mac-Windows/Spotify-0-9-17-for-GNU-Linux-and-the-upcoming-1-x-beta/td-p/1071035 [06:33] use a different version of spotify seems to be the solution but thats not really an ubuntu problem [06:34] mimbo it means use the mount command to mount it [06:34] schlerp: well, it's probably every media player [06:34] schlerp: i don't think spotify is unique to this [06:34] @schlerp : please advise command to input. sorry novice here. [06:35] mimbo no worries [06:35] mimbo whats your stick formatted in? (the default is probably exfat?) [06:35] molgrum: what version of ubuntu you on? [06:36] @schlerp: no idea. I just use 'as it'. How to check ? [06:36] plug it into windows and right click go to proerties [06:36] mimbo its all good we can assume exfat for now [06:36] anyone know how i can retrieve an https page from command line? [06:37] wget doesnt work, tries to use http only and i get a 400 [06:37] dogedDev: look at curl or wget [06:37] ahh curl then sorry dont know command of the top of my head! [06:37] schlerp: latest, vivid [06:38] schlerp: that's the problem, it uses a more recent version of libgcrypt [06:38] @schlerp : I cannot remove the USB now, otherwise system cannot read when I stick it back later. [06:38] schlerp: so that's why spotify cannot launch [06:38] ok well i jsut tested rhythm box in a vm and it works fine from the menu [06:38] doesn't ubuntu have an auto-run fsck prerogative, when its startup detects 'serious' errors on '/' ? [06:38] @schlerp : what is the mount command ? [06:38] this is for 14.x lts [06:38] schlerp: sure rhythbox works fine :) [06:38] Haris: yeah but you may have uninstalled something so it thinks you want no desktop [06:38] its giving me the i/ignore, s/skip, m/manual maintenance, as options [06:38] schlerp: try spotify if you can, you will see what i mean [06:39] molgrum: sounds liek a spotify issue, they gotta update there app to use the version of the library on the system if they want it to work with the system [06:39] schlerp: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/11766277/ [06:39] schlerp: yeah but... my bug report is regarding the loading circle :) [06:40] schlerp: not spotify [06:40] yeah thats fair enough it should nt do that you are right but it may be coded to spin for 60 seconds waiting for a reply from the app [06:40] like it may be by design if you catch my drift... [06:41] mikubuntu: google TOSHIBA MQ01ABD075 [06:41] schlerp: yeah you may be correct, i can try and see how long it spins [06:41] schlerp: 60 seconds seems wayu too hardcore IMO [06:41] yeah it was a bad example :P [06:41] schlerp: k thx [06:41] but imagine a pentiumloading a 1080 movie... [06:42] mikubuntu: http://www.amazon.com/TOSHIBA-MQ01ABD075-750GB-internal-notebook/dp/B008LA661I [06:42] schlerp: yeah but it should check if the app failed to load [06:42] @schlerp : what is the mount command ? [06:42] schlerp: and if so, stop the darn circle : [06:42] ohh osrry mimbo! [06:42] :) [06:42] well maybe the app isnt telling it it failed the time out has to accomodate pooey hardware [06:43] schlerp: you may be correct yes, do you know if i can test if it returns any exit code? [06:44] oh wait, it doesn't load at all [06:44] ok mimbo: first you need: sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils [06:44] schlerp: thx, i'm surprised its a spinning drive -- its the coolest running and quietest laptop i've ever had -- and pretty zippy too. now i'm wondering how much better it would be with an ssd! [06:44] because of lib missing [06:44] could try calling it from bash and checking if there is a verbose flag? [06:44] i havent used spotify sorry molgrum [06:45] mikubuntu they are awesome improvements [06:45] any suggestions on how to clear this package managment clusterfuck short of a fresh install? https://gist.github.com/anonymous/a8c9ab48c7f3a8aaf30e [06:45] schlerp: it's good that you can keep away from it, i have to use it because of addiction to music and keeping up to date with current top hits :) [06:45] @schlerp : what is next ? [06:46] first can you post df -u out pulease mimbo? [06:46] does ubuntu have tools for fsck on ntfs partitions ? [06:46] schlerp: time to start saving my pennies :P [06:46] Haris: not as far as i know [06:46] @schlerp : df: invalid option -- 'u' [06:46] oh sit sorry df -h [06:47] I have an ubuntu installation running off of a 32 GB flash drive. I formatted boot to 100MB during installation, and kept / right after it. If GParted is to be believed, then I'm royally screwed, as there is data in / at the start (which is expected). [06:47] oh, the issue is that ubuntu, er, xubuntu won't update because boot is too small [06:47] ah I'm a damn moron. I added support for x86 32 bit, then didn't apt-get update... [06:48] this is a laptop. I'v booted from ubuntu bootable usb. I'm into 'Execute a shell' part. how do I check what disks are available ? fdisk utility is not available. Is there a way I can run fsck on this laptop's hard drives ? [06:48] mimbo: sudo mount -t exfat /dev/sdd1 /mnt [06:48] that will mo0unt it to mnt on your system [06:48] the go to mnt to view the files [06:48] oh no, exact same errors [06:48] google mounting exfat and have a quick read around to get your head around it [06:48] @schlerp: FUSE exfat 1.0.1 [06:49] schlerp: thx for your help, i think i'll skip the bug report :) [06:49] @schlerp: ERROR: exFAT file system is not found [06:49] molgrum: no worries! have agood one! [06:49] same! [06:49] ok its probably just fat then [06:49] guys [06:49] ? [06:49] Sun [06:49] haris: type df -h [06:49] kev [06:50] that'll give you your drives and there sizes [06:50] I have tmpfs only showing === josh is now known as Guest627 [06:50] haris: are you sure your machine is connected to the internal drive? === crash is now known as Guest23803 [06:51] mount internal drives perhaps? [06:51] its a laptop. its already connected. lol [06:51] @schlerp: FUSE exfat 1.0.1 [06:51] @schlerp: FUSE exfat 1.0.1 [06:51] @schlerp: ERROR: exFAT file system is not found [06:52] haris can you tell us the output of: ls /dev | grep sd === Guest23803 is now known as Doomsday [06:53] mimbo try the same command but swap exfat for vfat [06:53] are you typing sdd or sdd1 [06:54] hold please. rebooted the box with kernel line with single at the end. I'm on (initramfs) prompt. no disk utility here. looking at what I can do at this prompt === Doomsday is now known as Bandicoot === Bandicoot is now known as Goombo [06:54] @schlerp : Error mounting: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/ssd1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error [06:55] mimbo hmm..... [06:55] does the usb definately work in other machines? and you definately havent formatted it to something else? [06:55] @schlerp: yes it does. no not formatted [06:55] Hey guys, can anyone tell me if the tools in BackBox are in a single directory or if they're in their own? [06:56] I have sda, sda1, sda2, sda3, sda4. most probably ntfs partitions. this laptop has a 1 tb drive [06:56] Goombo: ask the backbox support for questions about that [06:56] has dual boot, win8 and 14.x lts [06:56] Okay, thank you. [06:56] from windows, I checked disk-manager. it showed partitions as ntfs [06:56] haris: are you still in initramfs comamand line [06:56] but 14.x lts has been running on it for some months now [06:56] anybody here? [06:57] nope. rebooted from usb again. back in 'execute a shell', after choosing recover a broken system from ubuntu bootable usb [06:57] couldn't find basic helpful recovery tool in initramfs mode === Samul|AWAY is now known as Samul` [06:59] initramfs isnt very user friendly [06:59] ok can you ls /dev | grep sd [06:59] understatement of the year [06:59] @schlerp: yes the USB does work on other machines. no it is not formatted [07:00] I have sda, sda1, sda2, sda3, sda4. most probably ntfs partitions. this laptop has a 1 tb drive [07:00] mimbo can you plug it into another windows machine and right click and tell me the format of it? [07:00] need tobe able to run fsck on these partitions from ubuntu [07:00] Haris: did you do a wubi install? [07:00] ..to+ be+.. [07:00] what? you want to recover windows7? [07:01] fsck isnt for ntfs partitions... [07:01] hmm... [07:01] Haris: what do you want to do at all? [07:01] run 14.x lts [07:01] haris: have you installed it yet? [07:02] @schlerp: format is ms-dos (FAT32) [07:02] Haris: and what is the issue now? [07:02] when I boot it, it says 'there aer serious issues with /', and gives options ->i/ignore, s/skip, m/maintainance mode [07:02] is there an f? [07:02] doesn't run fsck on /, on its own, before mounting it, like centos does [07:02] nope [07:03] really there is for me when i shut my compter down dogily [07:03] Haris: ok, what gives you a "sudo fdisk -l"? [07:03] and what partition is / [07:03] I'm trying to find out what / is =) [07:03] and is that a setup with lvm and or encryption? [07:04] @schlerp: format is ms-dos (FAT32) [07:04] cant tell right now. I'm recovering this laptop. can't access much, at present [07:04] well its the ext3/4 partiution if most of them are ntfs [07:05] Haris: boot a live usb/dvd. [07:05] can someone help me? =) [07:05] Haris: then come back here. we need facts to help you. cant just guess what you got there. that will lead to data loss. [07:07] Hi! I've set up raid 5 on ubuntu 14.10, with three 1.8TB disks. But in the file browser it says there is only 100GB space... What have I done wrong? Is there a remedy? [07:11] exit [07:11] pwp, How did you create this raid 5? Have you used mdadm? [07:11] Blinkiz, I think I did. Was already some time ago... [07:12] pwp: Check the 14.10 eol date, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [07:12] what is eol date [07:13] pwp: end of support [07:13] end of life [07:13] !eol | pwp [07:13] pwp: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [07:14] chyret2, and by that you mean? [07:15] pwp: You should read the links. [07:16] pwp, What is the output of "mdadm --detail /dev/md0"? If md0 is your raid5.. [07:16] pwp: Good to know is support length, there are releases that have 5 years support, 14.10 is a 9 month 14.04 was 5 [07:17] is not was [07:17] I know chyret2. By accident upgraded to 14.10. [07:17] pwp: Ah, col, I was just concerned you were informed is all. [07:18] cool* [07:18] chyret2, I am "somewhat" informed... [07:18] same here lol, on a good day [07:19] Blinkiz, here is the output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766360/ [07:23] is it possible to cp a site to a new location while the clients are adding contents to the site? [07:24] pwp, What about "fdisk -l /dev/md0"? [07:26] Blinkiz: here we go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766383/ [07:28] pwp, So no partitions on this drive? [07:28] Blinkiz, Oh!! Is there the error?? Should be a partition on the drive... [07:29] Hi - Quick question: I eed to install ubuntu on a netbook; I see that the Ubuntu Netbook Remix was released in 2010. Is it still supported or should I just go for desktop 32-bit? [07:29] pwp, yeah, maybe you did not copy everything? I do not see the line "Disk /dev/md0 doesn't contain a valid partition table" either [07:30] pwp, You do not need to have partitions of course. You can just put a filesystem right on there [07:30] Blinkiz, I did copy everything... [07:31] kg21: its not supported anymore. see Lubuntu and go with at least a 14.04 [07:32] mimbo : you still here? [07:33] pwp, Lets look at filesystem level and see if I can see anything weird. "sudo blkid" [07:33] k1l: Thanks [07:34] Blinkiz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766405/ [07:34] Hello fellow Ubunters! [07:34] I wonder what does the "1" parameter do in the command "iptables"? I tried to find it in the man page, but how do you search for it? [07:35] pwp, alright, so you have a filesystem right on the md0 device. Alright.. Have you mounted the /dev/md0 somewhere? if so, what is the output from "df -h"? [07:36] the option may not xmp me out in the bios because the ram does not have the option xmp [07:36] I have an ubuntu installation running off of a 32 GB flash drive. I formatted boot to 100MB during installation, and kept / right after it. If GParted is to be believed, then I'm royally screwed, as there is data in / at the start (which is expected). [07:36] oh, the issue is that ubuntu, er, xubuntu won't update because boot is too small [07:37] oops, wrong everything :) soz [07:38] Blinkiz: I hoped it was mounted on /video-raid5, but output of df -h doesn't show it... Although in the file browser /video-raid5 is present (but to small in size)...http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766414/ [07:38] whats your mtab file look like pwp [07:38] pwp "cat /etc/mtab" [07:39] the option may not xmp me out in the bios because the ram does not have the option xmp [07:39] and are you trying to mount it at boot with your fstab? [07:39] XMP will only be an option in the bios usually if the dimm's themselves support and report it [07:40] pwp, You can mount it, just do "sudo mount /dev/md0 /video-raid5". Then "df -h". [07:40] hoodedice: How did you install? Just to be clear . [07:40] live disk to usb via the usual method [07:40] hoodedice: Sounds like you need to clean out some kernels. [07:40] it's a fresh install [07:41] hoodedice is your boot on another partition? [07:41] yes [07:41] Blinkiz: I mounted it... http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766421/ [07:41] hoodedice: Ah, boot partition is not needed, you can move that all to / probably or just reinstall [07:42] how can I move "all that" to "/" ? [07:42] pwp, as you can see, 3,4T available for you on /video-raid5 now. Where did you see the 100G limit? [07:42] hoodedice, make your boot partiotin bigger or copy to to your local drive and adjust your fstab accordingly [07:42] if boots too small you run outa space from multiple kernels [07:43] hoodedice : copy everthing from /boot to /tmp [07:43] unmount that partiton [07:43] little resizing but would work, might have to mess with grub to boot [07:43] copy it all back into boot (which is not on the same drive as your / [07:43] *which is now [07:43] Blinkiz: When I start up and look at the file system there is already /video-raid5 mounted, but displaying a size of only 100GB [07:43] chy, can't resize -- / is just after /boot [07:44] edit your fstab and comment out the mount /boot stuff [07:44] reboot [07:44] I'll try that out schlerp, thanks [07:44] hoodedice what's the outcome of ll /boot/ | pastebinit ... paste the url here [07:44] hoodedice: Honestly I would reinstall, the boot partitionis not needed. [07:44] if shit goes wonky uncomment it and go back to normal [07:44] if its fresh its easier to reinstall like chyret is saying! [07:44] chy, have tons of things set up already =/ [07:44] pwp, okay, am guessing you have edited /etc/fstab for this? Lets look at that file then, "/etc/fstab" [07:45] pwp, oh, "cat /etc/fstab" [07:45] tes [07:45] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766429/ [07:45] hi [07:45] blinkiz, pwp : when adding stuf the the fstab you gotta use the blkid of the md0 partition once its formatted! thats what caught me out with my raid it didnt seme to work any other way! [07:46] chy, thanks as well =) [07:46] Blinkiz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766431/ [07:47] if i did the biarch wine compile, what winearch should i use to rune everything? [07:47] and do i put everything in the same wineprefix [07:47] MonkeyDust, pasted above [07:47] pwp : you havent added it yet [07:47] add a new line iwth this as the uuid: [07:47] a01d5732-10c4-4d81-af8e-80554e5348c2 [07:48] pwp, can I recommend you to install a tool to make it easier for you to paste into paste.ubuntu.com? Do "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" [07:48] hoodedice yes, i see nothing unusual, apart from the kernel number [07:48] hoodedice: Gparted will resize the ? partition and the boot partition, from a live cd. [07:48] thanks Monkey [07:48] */* [07:48] hoodedice whats your outpout from df -h [07:49] kinda ugly, but here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766442/ [07:50] pwp, Do this, sudo echo "UUID=a01d5732-10c4-4d81-af8e-80554e5348c2 /video-raid5 ext3 defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab [07:50] hoodedice your not out of space on boot? [07:50] Then, if you have pastebinit installed, "pastebinit -i /etc/fstab" [07:50] so in this a grate place to ask about real time help [07:50] scherlp, am when I update [07:50] is* [07:50] needs about 40MB more [07:51] ahhh really? [07:51] unfortunately so =/ [07:51] hoodedice where's your /dev/sda ? [07:51] whats inside ls -lA /boot/ [07:51] probably not mounted? [07:51] oh I see,, it's below [07:52] MonkeyDust: sry for the late reply yes i’m talking about ubuntu server 10 and 14 [07:52] hmm well i think your best option is to copy the files from boot to somewhere else then unmount boot [07:52] usawr, if you're talking about my /boot/ contents, I pasted it a while ago http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766429/ [07:52] then copy them back to boot now its on your / partition [07:52] and comment the /boot lin out of your fstab [07:52] Blinkiz: pw@studiopulto-ubuntu-1:~$ sudo echo "UUID=a01d5732-10c4-4d81-af8e-80554e5348c2 /video-raid5 ext3 defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab bash: /etc/fstab: Permission denied [07:53] yeah, no clutter, can't free much up that i can see [07:53] noetik remind me what your issue was ... ubuntu 10.04 is no longer available, !eol [07:53] pwp type su first [07:53] then you will be root and you will be able to execute that command with out the sudo [07:54] then type exit to return to your former user [07:54] The issues was that especially on random access like: dd if=/dev/zero of=/root/testfile bs=512 count=1000 oflag=dsync ubuntu 14 is more than 50% slower [07:54] and i wonder why [07:54] schlerp, http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766460/ ? [07:54] schlerp that's a dangerous thing to advice to a beginner [07:54] hoodedice if you only comment them if something goes wrong you canalways fire up a live cd/usb and uncomment them and atleast get back to current state if that makes sense?

[07:57] Then, if you have pastebinit installed, "pastebinit -i /etc/fstab" [07:57] __john_doe__, do the same thing just with -f between install and the package name [07:57] !info python-pip [07:57] and what's the output [07:57] python-pip (source: python-pip): alternative Python package installer.

I know the following problem is already discussed all over the Internet, but despite hours of research and the fact that I'm not a total noob, I still can't solve it. I have a Lenovo X1 Carbon with 8GB RAM, but Ubuntu only reports 1.2 GB. I know some gets shared with the Intel HD4000 video card, but it can't possibly be that much. Can anybody help me troubleshoot this, please? [07:58] __john_doe__: what do you need that package for? [07:58] pwp, Nice, there you have it. Now it will be mounted on each boot with 3.4TB disk space. [07:58] oh yeah and the output of the apt-get install -f PACKAGE [07:58] <__john_doe__> usawr: ta [07:58] <__john_doe__> lotuspsychje: for python virtualenv [07:58] <__john_doe__> and pip [07:59] Blinkiz: Thanks a lot!

[08:01] <__john_doe__> usawr: I did -f and it installed everything lol [08:01] __john_doe__: if you have multiarch that is [08:01] oh [08:01] well i would have checked the output first [08:01] jonesy: did you plugin the memory yourself?

[08:09] wbill : oh top down [08:09] it reads it like we do as its interpreting it the same way we wrote it! [08:09] so left to right top to botoom then? [08:09] bottom [08:09] wbill: yeah whats your beef? [08:10] how to check physical lan cards available on 14.04.2 lts ? [08:10] wbill : you have to declare things before you can call them and that means put them closer to the top not the bottom?

[08:48] schlerp: yeah, it reports 256 MB [08:49] and one more try "sudo dmesg | grep drm" [08:49] jonesy ^ [08:50] schlerp: the only line that mentions memory says: "[ 1.974685] [drm] Memory usable by graphics device = 2048M" [08:52] hmm doesnt sound likme its exclusive though.... does it jonesy === screedoz is now known as screedo [08:52] jonesy not sure whats causing it do you have any spare dimms you could try in it? [08:52] hello. If i add a PPA that has a newer version of a program than that on my system, how do I tell Ubuntu to upgrade to that? Do I have to remove the old and install the new or is there another way? [08:52] schlerp: no, and I'm pretty sure these are not user serviceable. [08:53] jonesy :P its not a mac is it?

[09:27] !pin | tazz [09:27] tazz: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto [09:27] hateball: I know about apt::pin [09:28] tazz or what hateball says [09:28] I was thinking of using this in a bash script.

(e.g. apache doesnt run as root). but that iptables line i gave you should work fine. it does for me [09:32] nbags: I followed this instruction: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11766801/ [09:33] nbags, try the one i gave you. im using it cause my university blocks port 993 (imaps) [09:33] the question I have there, do I have to start the scripts that I put into /etc/network/if-up.d ? [09:34] zack_s_, its up to you really how you run it. i use /etc/rc.local for mine (once i'm sure it works) [09:34] nbags: oh when I start the script, everything works [09:35] I am confused with this approach, maybe you can explain me, why I have to put these script in this particular folder? [09:35] zack_s_, that way the system will run it once it has established a network connection [09:35] (automatically) [09:35] nbags: but this was not the way, I had to source the script [09:36] source jira-redirect [09:36] than it was working [09:36] zack_s_, the idea is that when you reboot, or run 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart', it will run the script [09:36] so it doesnt break once you reboot the system [09:36] nbags: so every script I put into '/etc/network/if-up.d/' will be automaticall started? [09:37] yes, as long as it is executable (don't forget the 'chmod +x') [09:37] it was not started automatically, what can be the problem? [09:37] yes the x flag is set [09:37] zack_s_, is this a server or a desktop system? [09:38] nbags: server system [09:38] zack_s_ there's also #ubuntu-server [09:39] zack_s_, not sure. but i think if you are using NetworkManager (like on a desktop system) then process is different [09:39] I see the problem [09:39] I put this jira-redirect-clearer in the same folder === oleg is now known as Guest96471 [09:41] hi my gnome flashback session logging out mysterioushttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2014-October/278034.html this explain my problem pretty much can any one help mely [09:42] что можно [09:42] !ru | Guest96471 [09:42] Guest96471: Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke.

I noticed that I couldn't import a video in my project, and googling the error message couldn't result in anything useful. also, I tried with another video and it does import it, but when I open the preview window, it is somehow bugged. I can only hear the audio, and if I click on it [12:59] it closes [12:59] this is the output when I try to run the program from terminal http://pastebin.com/ucTNvPcg [12:59] I cannot understand whether it's something I have to fix or there are just some miscoded parts in the software (unlikely, IMO) [12:59] Samul` if Pitivi doesnt work properly, try Openshot [13:00] are they fairly similar?

[13:29] lemarc, pretty sure each file can be uncompressed by itself. Just compress first then group then into 200mb size folders ? [13:32] That's a lot of text. [13:34] A list of his sworn enemies. The first on the list is the nanny that wouldnt let him get two servings of dessert. [13:37] Ekarus, I need to upload zip files to a CRM where upload limit is 200mb, so I cant compress all together and split, each 200mb archieve should be independent archeive [13:41] guys sorry for ot, but do you know some nice irc channels on this server [13:41] when I type apt-get update, I see such error outputs http://paste.ubuntu.com/11767780/ what I should do in order to not too see the error? [13:42] angs: Why are you looking on old-releases for trusty... trusty is still a supported release. [13:43] Pici, I did apt-get update & upgrade, then I started to have this error. [13:43] hi there ! [13:43] what should I do about it? [13:44] easy question : i need to set a delay of 3 seconds to stdout display [13:44] how can i do that? :D [13:44] angs: modify your sources.list file to poit to http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ instead of http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ [13:44] thank you Pici [13:45] hello! i have a problem after upgrading to ubuntu 15.04 from ubuntu 14.10. i have ssd and before upgrade the system booted in less then 10 seconds; but after upgrade i'm waiting for almost one minute or more. after the gui shows up for login, there a message that network has been disconected (network cable is connected to computer). after login network and everything else works. it's possible to somehow figure out what's the problem f [13:48] lemarc, I meant compress each file individually then group them. Each individual file is usually compressable/uncompressable by itself [13:48] question about unity launcher in 14.04 - i have chrome in the #8 position, and *usually* a super-8 will switch to it or launch it. just now though, super-8 (repeatably) launched a new chrome window with a particular bookmark, and added it to the launcher below the last app icon (leaving the other chrome icon in the #8 spot as well). where might this behavior be coming from? [13:49] Assuming you use gzip, it will replace each file by another file with the same name but with the .gz suffix and in the compressed form. Each of those can be uncompressed by itself [13:49] Then you can just group those .gz files into whatever size folders you want. [13:50] majmune, sounds like your network configuration got broken, and it's waiting/timing-out waiting for it [13:50] hello, I am having a weird problem on my box [13:50] I type the command adduser herrkin dialout [13:51] after that I cannot see the ubuntu launcher when I login [13:51] pbx: how to check or restore it to default (i just need a basic dhcp config which is primarly set on ubuntu)? [13:51] majmune, When I had 12.10 or somethin like that, I had a problem with network-manager [13:51] only the wallpaper [13:51] majmune, i'd set it to what was working in your 14.10 setup [13:52] I tried enabling the unity plugin, nothing happened [13:52] what can be wrong? [13:52] majmune, I changed it for wicd and then it worked like a charm [13:53] majmune, not the most elegant solution but still it worked [13:53] pbx: i have this in /etc/network/interfaces "auto lo \n iface lo inet loopback" [13:53] Djarbore: it's possible to somehow see if that is really the problem somewhere in logs? [13:55] I dont have sound using headephones with jack, any help? [13:55] no problem with usb output [13:56] lemarc, also instead of just grouping them into folders you could turn them into a tarball with tar --create. You'd end up with 200mb .tar.gz files [13:57] hi can any one say how to hide the google chrome rounded icon to be removed from system tray in ubunut [13:59] majmune: have a look at "grep -i networkmanager /var/log/syslog", but not sure [13:59] Hello, can someone point me in the right direction to find out how to apply http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/52603/ locally ?

It works normally but if I click a dropdown menu of a program, it does not take the printscreen [15:28] I am trying to take a printscreen of a dropdown menu [15:29] angs, ah, yes, that does not work indeed [15:29] install screenshot for that, it has a timer [15:29] angs: I use imagemagick for that [15:29] angs: sudo apt-get install imagemagick [15:30] angs: you can then run: sleep 5; import ~/Pictures/capture.png [15:30] Hi. I don't have a ubuntu box available to me. Would someone be kind enough to let me know the output of this command? cat /proc/1/comm ? Thanks [15:30] angs: you then have 5 seconds to setup the screen [15:30] angs in Dash, type Screenshot ... set it to 5 seconds and start ... open your menu of shoice === ToBeCloud_ is now known as ToBeCloud === ToBeCloud is now known as Guest90775 [15:31] ActionParsnip: I tried sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java but get failed to add [15:31] Anyone here have experience with the Linux citriz receiver? [15:32] how do i list the various volumes/partitions of my HDD? [15:33] Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:webupd8team/java'. Please check that the PPA name or format is correct. [15:33] barq: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [15:33] regedit: in cli? or with gui? [15:33] k1l_: CLI please [15:33] regedit: sudo fdisk -l (small L at the end) [15:33] ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS [15:33] regedit: sudo parted -l [15:33] regedit - df -h or try fdisk prolly more what you want. [15:33] OK thanks guys! [15:34] regedit: and if its a gpt disk (it will tell an error with fdisk then) then use EriC^^s command [15:34] ActionParsnip, thanks it takes a screenshot although it is not the whole screen, I will google how to take the full screen shot [15:34] yes it's GPT [15:34] angs in Dash, type Screenshot ... set it to 5 seconds and start ... open your menu of shoice [15:34] choice* [15:34] * k1l_ needs to change his memory from fdisk to parted like he did from apt-get to apt [15:34] my laptop said it only supports 8G.. i put in 16G, bios and ubuntu both recognize it. How can i verify it? i want to load it up and see if it can be addressed [15:34] so I am trying to troubleshoot an issue to figure out if it is the wireless card driver or the WAPs at work. I have a lenovo t450 with 15.04 installed. The t450 includes an intel 7265AC card. The WAPs at work are not AC WAPs. The laptop randomly disconnects from the network. I have another different machine with a 7260AC that does the same thing. At home I have an RT66AC router and do not experience disconnects. I am trying to narrow [15:34] this down. Since I do not experience disconnects at home it makes me think it is the WAPs at work and the wireless card not working well together. If this is the case I can make the case to buy all new WAPs for our office, but I need to be certain. I have looked at the syslog and seen some errors that are odd that only occur at work. Anyone else in here have experience with this particular wireless card/issue? [15:35] angs: sleep 5; import -window root ~/capture.png [15:35] barq: weird, let me check [15:35] Thanks. [15:37] barq: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java [15:37] barq: I can see the PPA online... very weird https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/ubuntu/java [15:37] ActionParsnip: Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:webupd8team/java'. Please check that the PPA name or format is correct. [15:38] ActionParsnip, thanks but weirdly it didn't take the dropdown menu on the capture. I opened the File menu of the terminal but don't see it on the capture [15:38] barq: very strange indeed [15:39] ActionParsnip, it works now, thanks again [15:39] barq: what gives you "lsb_release -d"? [15:40] there was some work in progress https://twitter.com/launchpadstatus/status/613293106344108032 [15:40] k1l_: Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS [15:40] barq: any proxies involved? [15:40] k1l_: Yes. [15:41] That ppa is online, just added ( and removed ) it. [15:41] that could be the issue. when its asking the launchpad database and not reaching it. [15:41] S: [15:41] What can I do now? [15:46] Is this the right channel when I have google chorme for Ubuntu Mate and the browser is not saving the tabs? I tried a configuration reset and changing the option (empty tab - save tabs) - but the browser is not saving the tabs ... [15:46] barq: you need to set the proxy to be used like the first answer here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/452595/cannot-add-ppa-behind-proxy-ubuntu-14-04 [15:49] Hello again ! [15:49] I got a GS60 with an Atheros Killer N1525 and I really can't install it [15:49] could anyone help me ? [15:49] k1l_: I did that.

[16:02] Now I was able to select sudo update-alternatives --config java the java 7 but still java -version is 6 [16:03] do I need to set JAVA_HOME? [16:03] I have Wine 1.6 installed & then I installed Playonlinux. And Playonlinux installed wine1.5 but how do I uninstall the other version [16:04] how do I check what version of wine I have? [16:05] confused123, `wine --version` should tell you [16:05] barq: the PPA does it for you [16:06] ActionParsnip: I moved the jdk6 directory somewhere else, now I get java -version java not found. [16:06] So java7 was not set [16:06] I installed ubuntu12-non-pae. I think I forgot to install grub. [16:06] http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/how-to-install-ubuntu-1204-on-non-pae.html [16:06] barq: if you close and reopen your browser, you should see java working ok in http://javatester.org/version.html [16:07] ActionParsnip: I don't need it in the browser. Eclipse needs it. [16:07] barq: doesn't matter, the java will still install and be ok. Check the alternatives menu again [16:07] ActionParsnip: And that site gives me error [16:08] ActionParsnip: alternatives gives me this: https://ghostbin.com/paste/xz97b [16:09] barq: switch it to 2 [16:09] barq: thats the oracle one [16:09] hi [16:09] I've removed a package and then removed the configuration files [16:09] now when I install the package, it doesn't add any configuration files to /etc [16:09] why is that? [16:10] Notwang: what file(s) are you missing? [16:10] ActionParsnip: /etc/samba [16:10] ActionParsnip: That worked. Thanks a lot for your help. [16:10] Thanks to others as well! [16:10] barq: yay!! [16:10] Notwang: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [16:11] ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS \n \l [16:11] it's more of a question about apt-get than ubuntu itself [16:11] anyway I need those config files to be reinstalled [16:11] Notwang: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=samba&mode=exactfilename&suite=trusty&arch=any it doesn't seem to be provided by any package [16:12] ActionParsnip: samba provides it [16:12] at least it appeared in /etc after I installed samba [16:12] Notwang: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/samba/filelist it doesnt [16:14] Notwang, what you miss, smb.conf or the entire folder ? [16:14] ioria: entire folder [16:14] Notwang, dpkg -l system-config-samba ? [16:14] Notwang: seems you need to reinstall samba-common [16:14] Notwang: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/samba-common/filelist [16:15] Notwang, and then dpkg -l samba-common [16:15] histo, how do I configure a file or folder to be available for each domain? (like phpmyadmin) [16:15] ok that helped, thanks [16:15] ioria: ActionParsnip: ^ [16:15] Notwang, usually i use sudo apt-get install -y samba samba-common python-glade2 system-config-samba [16:16] I have ubuntu server on a usb stick that I would like to boot from, but at the boot screen, instead of showing the splash, it says "no DEFAULT of UI configuration directive found!" [16:16] and then shows a "Boot:" prompt [16:16] what do I type in? [16:16] Notwang: packages.ubuntu.com is handy. Instead of deleting stuff, try moving it first. If all is weel, then delete [16:16] Notwang: less destructive [16:17] Glorfindel: is it installed to the stick, or have you made an install media? [16:17] ActionParsnip: install media [16:17] Glorfindel: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? [16:17] I did not [16:17] Glorfindel: then how do you know it was complete and consistent? [16:17] it booted? [16:18] Glorfindel: well, clearly not as your first statement shows [16:19] ActionParsnip: I'll checksum it quick [16:21] My Ubuntu starts only if you have a USB stick (Unetbootin) connected.

Or, use clonezilla to create an image, that can be restored to a vm.

Can anyone advise me further? [18:19] Hi. I have a 3TB disk connected to an ubuntu machine through an SATA -> USB adapter. gdisk and parted both report physical and logical sector size as 512B. 2 questions: Isn't it unlikely that a 3TB disk have 512B sectors? If the disk actually have 4K sectors, how can i make a GPT table/partition (do not know which decide sectorsize) with 4k sector size? [18:19] area51pilot: can you do it without LVM? [18:19] moobase, never tried that one, you get the option for both [18:20] hey folks! i'm using 14.04 LTS but can't find a place to upgrade the mesa opengl libraries beyond what's in the trusty packages. does anyone know where i might look? [18:20] moobase, yes you can [18:20] BUSY: In some unsupported PPA - but why do you want non-LTS mesa? :) [18:20] moobase, LVM helps you manage partition sizes later on === picklenap is now known as picklevape [18:21] bekks, the newest source 2 engine is struggling to render some 3d objects due to the base mesa being a bit outdated [18:22] As4xk: Most drives that have an internal sector size of 4K still present themselves to the OS as having 512 byte blocks. For these drives you don't want to create a GPT label saying that the logical sector size is 4K (because it's not, its 512 bytes). To get optimal performance you still want your partitions *aligned* to the physical sector size though, and that is generally accomplished by aligning all partitions on MiB ... [18:22] area51pilot: LVM introduces overhead (an extra layer of abstraction) not needed if your partition sizes won't change, right? [18:22] ... boundaries (which GParted, gdisk, and Ubuntu's installer all do by default). [18:23] moobase: No. LVM replaces the concept of partitions. [18:23] lvm doens't create an overhead [18:25] when did ubuntu lose the need for a xorg.conf? [18:25] Haled: years ago [18:25] at least 201 [18:25] 2010 [18:25] I think [18:25] 10.04 was the last that had it? [18:26] moobase, if youre not going to change partition sizes much than LVM is not necessary. It has some on the fly abilities that gparted must perform on dis mounted disks [18:26] well, didn't completely [18:26] moobase, I prefer using LVM and notice no change in system performance [18:26] because there is none [18:27] Haled: I haven't used one since around then [18:27] Jordan_U: Ok. Thanks! [18:27] plytro, ;) [18:27] As4xk: You're welcome. [18:27] moobase: all of my systems run LVM everywhere [18:27] Jordan_U: So when it sais start 1.00MiB it is aligned correctly? [18:27] Haled: but I don't run anything "exotic" [18:27] (in parted that is) [18:28] why would you even need to change your partition layout? [18:28] As4xk: Yes. [18:28] moobase: When you run out of space. [18:28] moobase: I don't allocate all of the disk [18:28] I leave about 50% not used in the lv group [18:28] if I need space, I grow the lv as needed [18:29] bekks: but who runs out of space on a desktop computer in modern times :P [18:29] moobase: I only have 120gb in my desktop [18:29] moobase: A lot of people. [18:30] moobase: you don't have to use it, [18:30] use what is best for your needs [18:30] is there any way to specify a different apt repo to use instead of CC.archive.ubuntu.com when installing using the GUI? === user is now known as Guest37886 [18:31] plytro: same as the command line [18:31] if it's included in the repo list, it will be available to the gui [18:31] it didn't give me the option to choose in the gui... [18:31] you don't choose [18:31] i'll have to go back and watch the screens more carefully [18:31] you include it in the source list, [18:31] is it possible to live-expand a 12.04 filesystem to fill up the free space in a VM provisioned disk? [18:31] and the packages that repo contain will be available [18:31] ikonia: I have a local approx server running I want to use [18:32] I use it for my server installs all the time [18:32] teward: not if it's not a dynamic disk [18:33] ikonia: so during the gui install you're saying it is possible to specify approx.plytro.com:9999? [18:33] plytro: oh you mean while you're installing the OS [18:33] yeah [18:34] what package do you want to install from an external repo [18:34] approx is a local cache so I don't have to download all the packages for each install [18:34] plytro: you're not going to be able to do that [18:34] approx isn't part of the base install - I don't think === FoodHuntVov is now known as Vovvy [18:34] so you'd need to specify an external repo and change the default package list [18:35] no no no, I have approx running on my existing 14.04 server [18:35] it has cached all the packages already [18:35] I want the installer to use it, like I can during the server install [18:35] you don't pick a country, scroll to the top of the list and specify the host of the apt repo to use [18:35] I'm just using apt-cacher-ng and a kickstart file. [18:35] plytro: the gui selects the closest possible repo, isn't there an override for that [18:36] i'll watch more carefully [18:36] I reverted to using teh server disk and installed as a ubuntu desktop system on them [18:36] could do a preseed install [18:36] things are close [18:37] I thought there was an override in the gui though [18:37] what is lacking though, since they are laptops, is any knowledge of the wifi hardware to network manaager [18:37] ikonia: i'll look when I get home [18:37] bekks: I used to have foreman running for it [18:37] pxenetboot and the like [18:38] plytro: Yeah, I've implemented the same without foreman. [18:38] I was playing with foreman for work learning at the time [18:38] i've had to fall back to the server install disk on the last 6 installs for one reason or another [18:39] ikonia: i'll have to look into that, but if it's not a dynamic disk and is monolithic preallocated, is it possible to live-expand the VM filesystem then? [18:39] plytro: Did the same - but foreman is too complex for being maintained by just two people ;) [18:39] these laptops it was so I could use my local approx [18:39] we only have 2 sysadmins w/ about 700 machines managed via foreman/puppet [18:39] assuming it's not LVM'd [18:39] teward: no [18:39] plytro: One is ill, the other one on holidays ;) [18:40] ha [18:40] ikonia: OK, so i'll need some kind of helper... blah [18:40] plytro: Thats why we decided against solutions like foreman. [18:40] our other infrastructure guys have a handle on it [18:40] but it not in their main wheelhouse [18:41] hey. I want to format a disk before it gets mounted by fdisk. basically I want to wipe all data after a reboot and also ensure that the partition exists [18:41] bekks: we had cobbler and now have foreman maintained by one, just as a sidenote [18:41] i've moved back to writing code, it pays better [18:41] is there an easy way to do this before mount -a is called [18:41] teward: To be clear, the linux kernel can expand mounted ext4 filesystems. The bigger question is what your particular virtual manchine solution allows you to do with expanding the size of virtual disks that are in use by a VM. [18:41] I think qemu-img only really should be done on powered off machines [18:42] Jordan_U: well it's actually a different issue there - the VM provisioned disk is 300GB - the filesys only is allocated 100GB [18:42] probably because I MEANT to resize the filesystem inside the VM itself... but got pulled away xD [18:43] i have to double check the way the disk is provisioned, first... [18:43] teward: Then barring other complications (since you haven't completely specified your setup) that should be possible. [18:46] you'll find it's not [18:46] guys, again this error came Failed to execute operation: Connection timed out [18:46] the file system will fill the partition, not the disk [18:46] after running apt-get , at the last while configure systemd [18:46] or the file system will be presented from the hypervisor [18:46] I think systemd is crap. [18:48] ikonia: so essentially in this case, it would be better to have the VM boot to a live image, and use gparted or such to expand the partition size and such? [18:49] to fill the disk that is [18:49] it really depends on the setup and how the vm storage is presented [18:50] ikonia: presented from which perspective? The ESXi, or the guest? [18:50] ikonia: i guess you're confusing me there at that part of 'how the storage is presented' [18:51] <[Ex0r]> Hello, I had a question, was hoping somebody could help me. I have a local ubuntu server (14.04 LTS), and I want to be able to send mail from it. I want any mail that's sent from system mail to be emailed from my google apps account. How do I set my system mail up to do this? === brainproxy_ is now known as brainproxy [18:52] [Ex0r]: you need to setup an MTA to relay via google [18:52] <[Ex0r]> ikonia- Okay, is there some information to do that? I found a guide online to use postfix but that doesn't appear to work. [18:52] postfix will work just fine with it [18:53] <[Ex0r]> ikonia- this is the guide I used [18:53] <[Ex0r]> https://rtcamp.com/tutorials/linux/ubuntu-postfix-gmail-smtp/ [18:54] [Ex0r]: looks ok at a glance [18:54] <[Ex0r]> ikonia- Okay, I am wondering if there's something else I need to do than [18:54] <[Ex0r]> then* [18:55] <[Ex0r]> because I have phpbb setup, and it's set to use system mail to send emails, but none of the emails are coming [18:57] can you belive it [18:58] my ubuntus still working! [18:58] how do I remove an ipv6 address from an interface? [18:59] [Ex0r]: get it working without php first [18:59] ah, nvm, got it [18:59] [Ex0r]: then you can use php after you know it's working, strip anything unknown out of the situation [18:59] <[Ex0r]> ikonia- I am trying to. I tried issuing the test command that it gave me, but the emails are not being received [18:59] are they being sent ? [18:59] <[Ex0r]> echo "Test mail from postfix" | mail -s "Test Postfix" you@example.com (substituting the email) [18:59] <[Ex0r]> no [19:00] how do you know ? [19:00] <[Ex0r]> they arent in my google accounts 'sent mail' folder [19:00] what are you doing to verify they are being sent [19:00] that doesn't mean they are being sent [19:00] they need to leave your local machine [19:00] <[Ex0r]> if its being relayed to google its always stored there [19:00] that doesn't mean it's being relayed [19:00] if it's not left your machine - it's not being sent [19:00] what does the postfix log say [19:00] <[Ex0r]> well no crap, that's the issue. [19:00] you don't know thats the issue [19:00] so don't be smart about it [19:01] it could be blocked before sending, it cold be connecting but getting rejected, [19:01] there are many possibility [19:01] <[Ex0r]> If it was working like it was supposed to, it would ALWAYS be in my google mail accounts sent folder. If it's NOT in there, then it wasn't sent, which means it never left the server. That would be from a configuration or server-side problem. [19:02] <[Ex0r]> If I send to an email outside of my domain, I get a new local mail [19:02] <[Ex0r]> looking for postfix log right now [19:02] if it's sending mail - it suggests it's not configured to go to google [19:02] as it's getting out without relaying [19:02] new local email ?

[20:02] gambl0re: enough [20:02] how do i get it to work on firefox? i dont want chrome and chromium storing my data for google [20:02] i thought they would have implemented some user restrictions... [20:03] Bashing-om: Is there an easy way to just rest the drivers to the default from the live usb? [20:03] wherees the offtopic channel? [20:03] gambl0re: ##chat [20:03] you said another one [20:03] use that one [20:03] which... [20:03] ##chat [20:04] whats the other one you gave me [20:04] just use ##chat [20:04] ok but whats the other one... [20:04] this is not a yellow pages [20:04] I can not open aps [20:05] SirMoo: Yeah, but it is not nearly as easy as booting the install from grub with the boot parameter ' nomodset' . The system should boot up using the fall back graphics, then one could remove the old driver, and install the new driver . [20:05] <[Ex0r]> okay I got that postfix issue fixed, now to fix the one where the local user is trying to send the mail as itself (which doesnt exist) [20:06] [Ex0r]: the local user is sending mail as itself, and postfix relays it. [20:07] <[Ex0r]> bekks- in my /var/mail/user file, I am getting a 'user' unknown error [20:07] thats a bounce message [20:07] <[Ex0r]> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11769658/ [20:07] the place you are sending mail to doesn't know about the address [20:07] <[Ex0r]> looks fine, but the mails are still not being sent [20:08] doesn't look find [20:08] fine [20:08] looks like it's sending to a non-existant person [20:08] [Ex0r]: Of course they arent sent, if the target doesnt know about the user. [20:09] <[Ex0r]> bekks- All I am trying to do is relay all mail sent from the system through my google apps email account. All this other stuff is making it difficult to achieve that. [20:09] no it's not [20:09] you're sending it to a user that doesn't exist [20:09] thats nothing to do with postfix/google [20:09] thats you sending it to someone that doesn't exist [20:09] Time to try... [20:09] <[Ex0r]> Is the message coming from the server, or google? [20:10] it's coming from the workahollic studio [20:10] <[Ex0r]> That domain and mail server is connected to google apps [20:10] so ? [20:10] it doesn't change "invalid user" [20:10] <[Ex0r]> and jfurnas@workaholic-studios.net is a completely valid email address. [20:10] not according to google [20:10] <[Ex0r]> Bull crap, I use it every single day. [20:11] google is rejecting it [20:12] <[Ex0r]> It shouldn't be, I use it every day nearly all day long. [20:12] <[Ex0r]> and for some reason it's still trying to use mail.workaholic-studios.net which is nothing [20:13] So your MX records points to the wrong server? [20:13] <[Ex0r]> so I wonder if it's even trying to relay and instead trying to use the local domain (Which is workaholic-studios.net) [20:13] <[Ex0r]> no, the mx records point to google apps [20:14] <[Ex0r]> but everything else points to this machine [20:14] thats just a bounce addres [20:14] address [20:14] doesn't mean thats real === kalen is now known as kalen_not-here [20:15] <[Ex0r]> is there a log file or another file that shows the actual mail itself going out, to see if it's relaying correctly? [20:15] you'll see it go from the postfix log [20:16] where is workaholic-studios.net mail hosted ? [20:16] <[Ex0r]> google apps [20:17] <[Ex0r]> hmm maybe its because it cant find the cacert file, im getting some messages in /var/log/mail.log [20:18] i'm never using another google product again [20:19] chromium gets no love from me [20:19] grinchier chromium is not property of google, chrome is [20:19] google adopts everything chromium does [20:19] !discuss | grinchier [20:19] grinchier: Want to talk about Ubuntu but don't have a support question. Join #ubuntu-discuss, for other non-support discussion not Ubuntu related you can also join #ubuntu-offtopic. Thank you. [20:20] OerHeks: they just banned me for talking about it, lots of chromium fan boys in there [20:20] grinchier, no need to start a flamewar. [20:20] its just facts [20:20] whos name is on the check is semantics [20:20] chromium designed it for google chrome [20:21] i woudln't use either anymore [20:21] do we have an actual support issue? [20:21] https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/blog/2015/06/google-chrome-listening-in-to-your-room-shows-the-importance-of-privacy-defense-in-depth/ [20:22] grinchier: 1) this is a support channel, not somewhere to complain about unrelated software. 2) you aren't banned from -offtopic. [20:22] do you use .lan for hostname? [20:22] something.domain.lan ? [20:22] Pici: hurry up and ban me you tool [20:22] Pici: if you support chromium now, your a spy or a tool [20:25] anyone here use a usb 3.0 dock with display ports? rtying to find one that supports ubuntu [20:26] ....trying to find ... [20:26] Hi, i'm having screen tearing/perpendicular blankness artifacts when I scroll in Eclipse's editor? I've tried some workarounds in Compiz-config, but no help. I also have black flickering in chrome, might be same issue. This is 15.04 with nvidia. Any ideas? === ESpynx is now known as ESphynx [20:29] zacharypch: One idea, have you tried a propritary graphics driver ? [20:32] I have an old Ubuntu 11.04 box. I can't dist upgrade it. I pointed apt to a replacement repo (the originals have long since been shuttered), but when I attempt to upgrade certain packages I get errors like: Depends: X (= 1.0.1-1) but 1.0.1-1ubuntu0.1 is to be installed. What do these errors mean? [20:32] Bashing-om, i think i have already chosen a proprietary one. can you remind me how to check that [20:33] votz: Probably easiest and most reliable just to install Ubuntu 14.04 from scratch. [20:33] upgrade or fresh install to a supported ubuntu release votz [20:33] votz: A likely thing is PPAs with newer version libs installed causing the dependency issue ? [20:33] Bashing-om, I found it, yes I'm using the nvidia binary driver version 346.59 [20:34] Jordan_U: xangua: Unfortunately that's not an easy option. [20:34] anyone here use a usb 3.0 dock with display ports? trying to find one that supports Ubuntu [20:34] !eolupgrade | votz [20:34] votz: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [20:34] Bashing-om: I'm not sure. I touch this box infrequently, but when the 11.04 repos went down years ago I Googled for a replacement, found one, and have been able to install some packages without issues. [20:35] votz: use that old-releases like named in that link. [20:35] But some packages can't be installed or upgraded due to error like the above. [20:35] zacharypch: ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' will list . [20:35] ThreeM: Meine Frau hat mit ihrem Auto bisher in 12 Jahren keine 4500€ investieren müssen - kauf Dir ein Auto :) [20:35] Sorry :) [20:36] !s robot [20:36] votz: Why not? Upgrading to 11.10 then 12.04 likely won't be an option either. [20:36] votz: *Won't be an easy option either. [20:37] Let's back up: what does that error mean? What's confusing is the version identifer in the same: 1.0.1-1, only the latter has 'ubuntu0.1' appended. [20:37] Full error: python-pyside.phonon : Depends: python-pyside.qtgui (= 1.0.1-1) but 1.0.1-1ubuntu0.1 is to be installed [20:38] I've just installed Ubuntu Server and I can see the IP are automatiicaly assigned by DHCP. Why I can't connect via putty locally? [20:38] Ice_Strike: Port 22 might be blocked by the firewall. [20:38] iptables? [20:38] Ice_Strike: and/or sshd isn't running. [20:38] @Ice_Strike: so you cannot SSH into it [20:38] sudo apt-get install openssh-server [20:38] votz: no one will make that effort to solve that depency issues for a release that is dead since some years. if you cant upgrade with the official old-releases dump that install, backup the data and make a 12.04 or 14.04 reinstall. [20:38] votz: '=' means that it depends on a very specific version, for whatever reason. That version isn't matching. Most dependancies are ">=". [20:38] zacharypch: 346 version, you should be good. No other idea at this time . [20:39] votz: if you have 3rd party repos or packages in that install, that is nearly impossible to resolve. [20:39] Oh I have to install openssh-server [20:39] hey guys, is anyone in here familiar with openswan? [20:39] yes [20:39] Thats stupid [20:39] Should be installed by default. [20:40] agree ^^ [20:40] you didn't chose it at installation of ubuntu server, or it isn't there at all [20:40] Jordan_U: Thanks. Is there a way to force the package to install, ignoring dependencies? [20:40] Ice_Strike: what install was that? the ssh server is standard on the server install. [20:41] It did ask during installation, I thought I wouldnt needed it and ssh would work [20:41] my bad. [20:41] votz: You haven't answered my question. Why are you not considering doing a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04? [20:41] k1l_ ubuntu server [20:41] yeah, see command above [20:42] Jordan_U: Because the box will be replaced soon. It's not worth the effort to reconfigure when it's going to get configured with a recent, LTS Ubuntu shortly. [20:42] This is a stopgap. [20:42] i have ubuntu running on a very small 8gb flash drive. Unfortunately right now it has the root partition as full. How can I limit the apt cache and also reduce the number of saved kernels to only 2? aka, the current and one past one [20:42] to SSH into something, the command is: ssh 'ip adres here' === athairus is now known as afkthairus [20:43] votz: It doesn't look like your plan is a very good fit for a stopgap in that it appears to require significant effort. [20:47] MACscr: Terminal command ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' will remove obsolete files including old kernels . [20:47] MACscr: ^^ that is 14.04 and above . [20:47] Jordan_U: Indeed. I hoped the fix would be an easy one. [20:47] Apparently not. [20:48] anyone use a usb 3.0 dock with display ports on ubuntu ... cant seem to find one [20:48] votz: give more facts. [20:48] votz: what repos do you use? [20:48] Bashing-om: isnt there a way to have it automatically removed when the new one is installed? i swear there used to be a way to set the number you wanted to keep [20:48] id liket to not have to manually manage things [20:49] and it doesnt really solve much with apt cache [20:49] votz: and what 3rd party stuff did you isntall there and what 3rd party repos like PPAs or other repos are enabled? [20:50] k1l_: http://pastie.org/private/hevutaczosgt00mjlqhuq [20:50] Looking through that file myself now. [20:50] MACscr: I am sure there is, but I do not know a method . Maybe investigate " /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ " [20:52] Looks like it pulls packages from http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu. I've run apt-get upgrade multiples times to see if that fixed the problem. [20:52] votz: "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d/" [20:52] hi all. now plugging two monitors into my onboard graphics (Intel Xeon E3-1200). during POST and bootup, i see both screens working (identical). however during boot, one goes off, and stays off (xrandr -q doesn't show it as connected). any clues? [20:53] is there something happening during boot that's confusing matters? [20:53] Hi, I am trying to connect ubuntu to a VPN server through l2tp/ipsec. It works from windows client but not from ubuntu client. Both client and server are behind nat [20:53] it's just at the point where the booting console font becomes pretty === fy is now known as nicechap_ [20:53] anyone use a usb 3.0 dock with display ports on ubuntu ... cant seem to find one that supports the display [20:53] (i don't boot with a splash screen, i prefer to see what's happening) [20:53] votz: and that 14.04 cdrom repo is kind of strange. looks like it was messed already [20:54] k1l_: http://pastie.org/private/fkbmfiy4veji9vweicyuyg [20:54] k1l_: Not sure. This is an old developer's box which is still used to build things from time to time. [20:55] votz: so see if that package is in some of that PPAs. [20:55] antgel: What that tells me is that your boot firmware's drivers (VESA/GOP/UGA) can output to both screens (probably strictly requiring mirroring) and that linux's native graphics drivers only support one of the monitors / outputs for some reason. [20:55] It's quite possible it could be: python-pyside.phonon is a Qt-related library, and Qt is used by lots of various client software. [20:56] Jordan_U: thanks for the response! i wanted to try and disable the framebuffer / console-setup / whatever [20:56] Jordan_U: i mean, it's hard to believe that xorg wouldn't support this === BOHverkill_ is now known as BOHverkill [20:57] do you guys recommend Snort for intrusion detection? Any other good security packages I should install on my servers? [20:57] Jordan_U: i'm using a ppa for intel drivers, should be newer than in trusty. perhaps i'll have to try the upstream drivers. hope they install in /opt or somewhere out of the way of apt [20:59] Long shot here anybody use Ubuntu on an Intel i5 NUC ? or HD5000 ? [20:59] Do you get Graphic GPU crashes like every hour like me [21:02] Jordan_U: ooh, at least the upstream intel package is a .deb. going to try xorg-edgers first then upstream. wish me luck! [21:03] fullstack, yes, found a article here, maybe works for you too http://www.linuxlinks.com/article/20150516044401418/Ubuntu1504-Page2.html [21:04] tearing crashing [21:07] OerHeks, thanks [21:07] is there anwyay to make sure that /etc/xorg conf.d will load [21:07] my screen is so bad I can hardly see this [21:08] fullstack: Start a new instance of X? [21:08] I just don't see anywhere that it references conf.d [21:08] Like unless it is hard coded into xorg binary [21:10] */20 */2 * * * would this run cron every 2 hours and 20 minutes? [21:10] so 12:20, 2:20, 4:20 [21:11] anew: It would run at 00:00, 00:20, 00:40, 2:00, 2:20, 2:40, etc. [21:11] oh [21:12] rypervenche, how do i get it to go at 12:20, 2:20, 4:20 [21:12] anew: if you want it to only run on the 20 minute, get rid of the */ in front of the 20 [21:12] 20 */2 * * * is 12:20, 2:20, 4:20 ? [21:12] it takes me about 45 minutes to restart X because I have to go to each window and note down what I was doing :( [21:13] If I install ubuntu-gnome-desktop using --no-install-recommends, would the --no-install-recommends apply during any future upgrades? [21:16] rypervenche, is that correct - 20 */2 * * * is 12:20, 2:20, 4:20 [21:16] anew: Yep^^ [21:16] Assuming i changed the paths would this script work on ubuntu [21:16] http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=JP2xWeFg [21:17] anew you can check yourself http://www.cronchecker.net/ [21:17] fullstack: Yes, it's in the binary.

[21:18] ok thanks still in the process of shuttind down x [21:19] Hi [21:20] I click on compiz fusion icon and nothing happen [21:21] sloantothebone: what when how why? give way more details to get help [21:22] When I do: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [21:22] nothing is happening? [21:22] nothing is outputting [21:22] Ice_Strike: what version of ubuntu? [21:23] latest [21:23] so 15.04? then use the systemd commands [21:23] restarting the server did a trick [21:24] Okay...currently using Unity, want to try Gnome, but don't want to install Evolution. Seems that --no install-recommends is the correct method. Can anyone confirm? [21:24] dawiba: i am not sure gnome-shell will work without evolution at all. [21:25] why not? it's only a mail client [21:25] k1l_:thanks [21:25] evoltution is included into gnome stuff for calender and mail things, so it might demand that and not work as expected without [21:26] dawiba: "sudo apt-get upgrade" will not install new packages on upgrades, so if you wouldn't get new recommended packages installed via apt-get upgrade. I believe that the same is true of update-manager, and I'm not sure if "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" by default installs new recommended packages or not. [21:26] brainwash: I know, but Thunderbird is already installed [21:27] k1l_: not as expected, maybe. but it will work [21:27] k1l_ I use 14.04.2 [21:28] dawiba: you can install and use thunderbird anyway. but as i said: gnome relys heavily on evolution [21:28] Jordan_U: I thought that was the case from what I'd read. Thanks for the reply. [21:28] Ice_Strike: so 14.04.2 *sigh*. there init.d should still work. [21:28] dawiba: You're welcome. [21:29] k1l_ look like a bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/1301015 [21:29] Ubuntu bug 1301015 in ifupdown (Ubuntu) "Networking does not restart" [High,Confirmed] [21:29] k1l_: Thunderbird is already installed here in Unity. I was simply thinking about trying Gnome with as little 'extras' as possible. Thanks again :) [21:30] Ice_Strike: k1l_: For Ubuntu 14.04 you should use "sudo service networking restart" rather than calling scripts in /etc/init.d/ directly. Note that the service command works with systemd also. [21:30] I just done that [21:30] stop: Job failed while stopping [21:30] start: Job is already running: networking [21:30] Heh [21:30] You can install ubuntu-desktop with no install recomends for a minimal image === jeffklex_ is now known as jeffklex[away] [21:31] k1l_: it relies heavily on evolution? why is this package not a hard dependency then (only recommended)?

[21:33] k1l_: Jordan_U: Thank you for your time, help, and input. [21:34] Is there a way to get a list of all packages that have been installed by a python setup.py file? [21:34] I mean, not a specific setup.py, but installed using that method. [21:34] Look in your site packages folder? [21:34] brainwash: seems like they divided the evolution stuff into several packages. [21:35] Usr local pythonxx site-packages [21:35] Or dist-packages [21:37] Tear free enabled! [21:38] Jordan_U: back. no joy. simply bizarre that xrandr -q only reports one connected screen (sadface) [21:39] Where I can setup in Ubuntu to run a script on boot? [21:39] Ice_Strike: What is your end goal? [21:41] Jordan_U to execute "/home/username/nzbget/nzbget -D" when ubuntu booted up. [21:42] Beeen reading, to add in /etc/rc.local ? [21:43] Ice_Strike: If you add it to /etc/rc.local be sure to use something like: su - username -c "nzbget -D" [21:44] Ice_Strike: You don't want to be running nzbget, or any other executable found within a non-root user's home directory, as root. [21:45] I see [21:45] Thanks [21:45] Ice_Strike: You're welcome. [21:45] Is there is other option instead of /etc/rc.local ? [21:45] Most common approach?

Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) [23:27] slaveo just ask [23:27] thanks guys [23:28] !help pastebin [23:28] The Scale plugin scales down your windows and allows you to select via mouse the one you want to be focused and raised. It is similar in functionality to the Apple Mac OS X Exposé effect. The functionality of the Scale plugin can be extended by other plugins. [23:28] sloantothebone, should I try adding "noapic nolapic acpi=off pci=noacpi irqpoll pnpbios=off" to the boot parameters? (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1326678) [23:28] rasalghul: so you deactivated it and then unity crashes? [23:28] I had problems with this plugin [23:28] hmmm [23:29] rasalghul: what issues? [23:29] Walkersneps, I'm not an expert [23:29] oh [23:29] i have installed ubuntu on my dell but wireless ''wifi'' dosn't appear only wired connection [23:29] kil, no when i have activated this plugin and for some reason hit super+w ubuntu restart the X [23:29] ahh i saw you on here last night slaveo!

[23:35] and what model laptop is it? [23:35] rasalghul, пожалуйста [23:35] Is there any mailing list for *just* 14.04 security? [23:35] but the problem is the plugin "scale" [23:35] The one I found is just general [23:35] yes with unity & compiz you better leave ccms alone [23:35] thats how you respond to thank you in russian [23:35] :( [23:35] tweak options are minimal [23:35] FreezingDroid: there are no seperated security lists [23:36] rasalghul, try reinstalling I guess [23:36] k1l: that seems a bit odd. Why not? [23:36] Or check your ubuntu tweak tool settings [23:36] FreezingDroid: why? [23:36] sloantothebone, reinstalling compiz? [23:36] k1l: Otherwise I have to go through five messages to find the only relevant one. [23:36] FreezingDroid cus you an write scripts to sepereate them yourself :P [23:36] k1l: Too much information is bad information. [23:37] FreezingDroid: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ i would got with that [23:37] trying Node zero with ubuntu kernel [23:37] k1l: You're missing the point of a mailing list. I'm not going to spend all day hitting F5. [23:38] http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/rss.xml [23:38] freexingdroid ^ [23:38] rss [23:38] How is that going to notify me within 30 minutes of the next Heartbleed? [23:38] FreezingDroid: i dont like your attitude that is demanding and aggressive against volunteers. good luck with your support issue, but i am out of this. [23:39] slaveo hahah well id personally use kali :P [23:39] k1l: As far as I'm aware, volunteers don't have root access to lists.ubuntu.com. If I'm wrong, feel free to correct me. [23:39] freezingdroid it wouldnt be called heartbleed if there is already a patched issue called that would it? [23:39] !guidelines | FreezingDroid [23:39] FreezingDroid: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [23:40] use rss :) [23:40] k1l: I don't see why your feelings are hurt because I don't like large mailing lists. Is that really all it takes to offend you...? [23:40] I have broken none of those guidelines. [23:40] schlerp: Any suggestions on how to monitor RSS decently? [23:40] FreezingDroid: and, yes. volunteers have access to lists.ubuntu.com. not everyone of thos beeing able to post there are canonical employees. === ubuntu is now known as Guest37176 [23:41] any suggestion about my problem [23:41] FreezingDroid: and i was especially calling on your demanding and aggressive behaviour i this channel right now against volunteers that try the best in their freetime to help you. so drop attitude asap. [23:41] freezingdroid yeah use http://mailchimp.com/features/rss-to-email/ if you like emails [23:42] freezingdroid k1l is right this is a friendly support channel [23:42] slaveo what model laptop do you have [23:42] k1l: I checked ever email this month for the security list and all of them are Canonical employees. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2015-June/date.html [23:42] dell inspiron 5110n [23:43] freezingdroid calm your farm or find another channel [23:43] schlerp: I am being friendly, k1l is attacking me for asking a question. [23:43] no you are argueing for the sake of arguing and its not helping anyone. [23:43] FreezingDroid, time to let it go and move on [23:43] dell inspiron 5110n [23:44] slaveo: please come back when you run original ubuntu. we dont know how code zero handles that stuff. [23:44] i killed compiz and now i cant see titlebars or switch windows, and ctrl+alt+t wont open terminal [23:44] what do i do [23:44] it was a bad idea [23:44] schlerp: I'm looking at mailchimp now. [23:44] reset compiz azizLIGHT [23:44] slaveo : it is supported by ubuntu so your issue seems to be with the distro [23:44] slaveo : Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) [23:45] Is anybody here using Ubuntu with AD integration? [23:45] I'm finding user logins are quite unreliable [23:46] no i have intel 1330 network adapter i think [23:47] schlerp: I can't find anywhere to add an RSS feed [23:48] all in all thanks guys for the help [23:48] slaveo no worries, try a live usb of plain ubuntu and see what happens! [23:48] (or kali...) [23:49] FreezingDroid what do you mean? [23:49] I mean I couldn't find anywhere to add an RSS feed to mailchimp [23:49] No ethernet port on the macbooks and the wireless driver doesn't come along :-/ That's gonna get hairy [23:50] oh i havent used it man, i just have scripts on cron jobs that grab my rss feeds and then i use conky to display them on my desktop [23:50] is kali best distribution for penetration test [23:50] i jsut suggested it due to your fondness of emails. [23:50] slaveo thats a little outside the scope of here but i thin its a good place to start :) [23:51] ok thanks [23:51] reactormonk tether your phone ;) [23:51] schlerp, nice idea [23:51] hahah got me out of many jams reactormonk [23:57] Hey guys, I'm kinda lost here. I get past the grub selection, however, when the boot process gets to sdb attached scsi disk, it drops to initramfs [23:59] is there a "supported" 'automated' way to force trim on SSD disks when you do a full disk encryption in ubuntu?
